Igniting the collection is the first-ever official CD & LP reissue of the band’s very first singles “Not Fade Away” and “You Can’t Fight It” which fans have been begging to be reissued for decades. Filling out the anthology are selections from every studio, live and deluxe reissue album the band have officially released. The golden jubilee gems will be 8 rarities: Vault Editions of “Working Man” and “The Trees” both showcasing alternate guitar solos with the former only being available as a digital single and the latter never officially released beyond the instrument-based video games. Next up are 5 unreleased live songs all from 1974 including two with original drummer John Rutsey with non-album songs like “Bad Boy” and “Garden Road.” Closing out the celebration is the incendiary final performance with Neil Peart in Los Angeles on August 1, 2015 of “What You’re Doing / Working Man / Garden Road.”Hugh Syme – the band’s longtime creative director – has been enlisted to design the brand-new 50th anniversary graphics along with new illustrations celebrating Rush’s songs.
